Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound lean ground beef

  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 4 cups beef broth

  • 1 can (14.5 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained

  • 2 medium potatoes, peeled and diced

  • 2 carrots, sliced

  • 2 celery stalks, sliced

  • 1 cup frozen green beans

  • 1 cup frozen peas

  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme

  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano

  1. In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until translucent, about 3 minutes.

  5. Add the diced potatoes, sliced carrots, and sliced celery to the pot. Stir in the dried thyme and oregano.

  7. Add the frozen green beans and peas to the pot. Continue to simmer for another 5 minutes until the vegetables are heated through.

  8. Season the soup with salt and black pepper to taste.

  9. Remove from heat and serve hot. Enjoy with crusty bread if desired.
